Geophones are omnidirectional seismic sensors to capture low-frequent vibrations. Besides detecting seismic activity, Geophones are used to capture extreme low-end for sound design, music production, field recording, foley and game sound.
These geophones are excellent tools for any field recordist or sound designer looking to explore their surroundings from a new perspective. The Geophones are based on seismic measurement capsules that normally were intended to measure earthquakes. Available in two versions—Geophone S and Geophone L—both models are portable and come with a case and various mounting accessories.
You are looking at the Geophone L: Covers 15 Hz to 1000+ Hz, goes even lower and is a bit more sensitive than the S.
One thing to note: Geophones can sometimes pick up electromagnetic fields and interference in certain areas due to their design and sensitivity.
